    • Amber

      As a crew member of both Spacebar and ANTIA, Amber is closely connected to Enschede’s electronic music community, surrounded by the artists, spaces, and dancefloors that continue to shape her musical perspective. Whether through her own instruments, her voice, or a pair of decks, her direction remains the same: to explore, feel, create, and turn the world around her into sound.
    • Anvari

      From the capital of Iran, our Tehran-born friend, usually spotted on the dancefloor in front of the decks, grew up in Germany, with his first experience of the power of electronic music made at Fusion. His fascination with stepping behind the decks truly unfolded after moving to the Netherlands, his new home, where he found himself surrounded by local talents he calls brothers and sisters, mentors, and his biggest inspiration. New to the scene and in search of his signature, Anvari loves to surprise the crowd with a journey through house, minimal, and techno, drifting between levitating grooves and deeper, more hypnotic soundscapes.

      As a member of the Enschede-based house music concept @bootsandcuts, Anvari has been spotted serving local dancefloors such as @tuinrel, @basicgrooves, and @onderderadarfestival with minimal- and house-inspired selections. At the same time, as member of techno collective @_punt, his sound leans strongly into techno: raw, immersive, and story-driven, focused on hypnosis, tension, and release. Alongside his work behind the decks, he is also co-founder of ANTIA, the only club in the east of the country (@antia.club) - a space built on freedom, control, and the shared experience of electronic music.

      Time to float, groove, stamp, jump, forget, remember, express.

    • Sim1

She focuses on creating a strong flow, where energy and feeling come together in a way that feels natural and honest.

This has led her to play at festivals like De Reactie and Freshtival, and at club nights in Metropool. Her goal is simple: to make people feel good, let go, and enjoy the moment, always creating a strong connection and memories that last.

  • museumnacht

    • Palimpsest: Theatre Performance

      Palimpsest is het derde en afsluitende deel van een meerjarig onderzoek naar ballast van theatermaker Elky Rosa Gerritsen. Een performance over alles wat we met ons meedragen en wat zich vastzet in ons lichaam; zichtbaar of niet. Een duet tussen hoofd en lijf. Tussen wegstoppen en omarmen. Tussen fantasie en werkelijkheid. En alles daartussenin. In een landschap van gedachten dat reageert, vervormt en verschuift, tast een performer af wat mentale ballast met een mens doet. Welke laag drijft boven? Welke ballast draag je zonder dat je hem ooit gekozen hebt? Betreedt een figuurlijk terrein van innerlijke lagen, waaruit een mens, een stad of een herinnering is opgebouwd. Oude sporen verdwijnen nooit volledig; ze drukken zich af onder alles wat nieuw is. Die gedachte vormt het hart van de performance.
    • Aramazd

      Born in Iran with Armenian roots, he grew up around the Enschede area. From an early age, he developed a passion for hip-hop instrumentals, always searching for hypnotic drum grooves with unique textures. He explored clubs across the Netherlands, looking for inspiring sounds. As the founder of Punt, he set out to create experiences with zero compromise, where the focus is on the total experience of the party rather than just the lineup.

      His curiosity eventually led him behind the decks, where he moved through different sonic phases, from minimal to techno and IDM. Now, he creates a trance-like experience on the dancefloor, taking listeners on a journey through the many shades of the techno spectrum, with excursions into more experimental, stripped-down, and fast-paced grooves. The goal is to break free from reality and dance untethered.

    • THE ADVASARY

      By combining Matthew Mark's love for dubstep, Hip Hop, dark aggressive horror elements and his religious background, ‘THE ADVASARY’ was born. By using 'THE ADVASARY' Matthew wants to tell a gnarly story around a cult of his own imagination and show the world that it’s ok to express yourself in these alternative ways.

      Matthew Marks Aka ‘THE ADVASARY’ is a dubstep producer who focuses on portraying a dark and heavy sound with his unique sound design.

      He was born in a religious household on St. Marten and grew up in the Netherlands, where he developed a liking for dark and grim themes. As these themes were seen as blasphemous in his household, he still rebelliously continued consuming a good amount of “blasphemous” content. Dubstep was one of the things that were considered “evil”, though due to there being such a backlash against it, he became more and more interested in the genre, until he absolutely fell in love with it.
